Although many people seem to have been experiencing frame rate issues generally, I have been having a more specific one. The game "hangs" or stutters, but only really during combat. The whole screen will simply freeze for a second or so, and characters will seem to jump from one location to another as the game catches up-- like lag in an online game. This seems to cluster particularly around times when I pause or unpause the game, and ALWAYS seems to occur at the start of combat after I unpause the initial auto-paused state the game enters by default when combat starts. It's not game-breaking, but it is annoying, and I would like smoother performance.
I attach the output log and my system specs. This problem occurs in every single combat encounter, large or small, regardless of location or context, so a save file didn't seem to be relevant.
